A little throw-up

Well she had another good night.  She had one wake-up but went back to sleep pretty easy.  Today was our first day on our own – we sent daddy off to work.  Unfortunately when Adela had her first feeding she seemed uncomfortable and then threw up.  She seemed happier, but when she had her next

Lively

Adela is continuing to improve.  Two nights ago she fell asleep on her own and had just a little trouble in the middle of the night.  Last night she slept through the night!  Yea! She was a little overtired by bedtime tonight but seemed to fall asleep ok.  We’ll see how she does.  She is

Happy Baby

Adela is doing really well. She seems really happy during the day.  Her nighttimes are still a work in progress.  She is gaining a great amount of weight and the doctors say she looked good on Thursday.  She seems to enjoy going out and about and I’ve learned how to take her feeds on the

On the up and up

We are just continuing to rest.  They are still looking at discharging sometime tomorrow.  She has been tolerating her feeds just fine and we are waiting to hear that she maintained her electrolytes without supplementation overnight.  We have had lots of people in and out all morning doing their check ins.  We have met with

Rambling Along

Adela continues to improve. Here is a rambling about today’s topics. Her sodium is at normal levels so she doesn’t have to continue her salt treatments – thank goodness – because they were making her throw up.   She is still not sleeping a lot but the doctors seem to think its more just being in

A New Seashore

Adela is still having some confusion with her sleep schedule so I’m writing this a little blurry-eyed this morning.  The grandparents have been very good about entertaining her at odd times.  On the medical front they re-swabbed her and it came back negative for the virus so we are off banana suits!  Her doctor, Dr.
